The accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in and constitute a part of this specification, illustrate embodiments of the disclosure and together with the description, serve to explain the principles of the disclosure.

The present disclosure can be more clearly understood from the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which:

FIGS. 1 and 2 are schematic structural diagrams of a substrate in a front view and a bottom view, respectively, according to an embodiment of a display panel of the present disclosure;

It should be understood that the dimensions of the various parts shown in the drawings are not drawn to scale. Further, the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar components.

Various exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The description of the exemplary embodiments is merely illustrative and is in no way intended to limit the disclosure, its application, or usages. The present disclosure may be embodied in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. These embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art. It should be noted that the relative arrangement of parts and steps, the composition of materials, numerical expressions and numerical values set forth in these embodiments are to be construed as merely illustrative, and not restrictive, unless specifically stated otherwise.

The use of “first”, “second”, and similar words in this disclosure is not intended to indicate any order, quantity, or importance, but rather is used to distinguish one element from another. The word “comprising” or “comprises”, and the like, means that the element preceding the word comprises the element listed after the word, and does not exclude the possibility that other elements may also be included. The word “upper”, “lower”, “left”, “right”, and the like are used only to indicate relative positional relationships, and when the absolute position of the object being described is changed, the relative positional relationships may also be changed accordingly.

In the present disclosure, when a particular device is described as being located between a first device and a second device, intervening devices may or may not be present between the particular device and the first device or the second device. When a particular device is described as being coupled to another device, it can be directly coupled to the other device without intervening devices or can be directly coupled to the other device with intervening devices.

All terms (including technical or scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure belongs unless specifically defined otherwise. It will be further understood that terms, such as those defined in commonly used dictionaries, should be interpreted as having a meaning that is consistent with those in the context of the relevant art and will not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense unless expressly so defined herein.

Techniques, methods, and apparatus known to one of ordinary skill in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail but are intended to be part of the specification where appropriate. Research shows that when the bending angle of an OLED bending screen adopting a top-emission microcavity structure in the related art is large (for example, the bending angle is 90 degrees, even 110 degrees or more), a large-angle bending area has a problem that the color deviation varies with the angle, for example, the bending display area has a color deviation phenomenon such as turning yellow, green or blue, and the like, and the visual effect is affected.

In some related art, a pixel region in a fingerprint recognition region of a display screen is used for image display, and also emits a high-brightness green light at the time of fingerprint recognition, so that the sensor senses a fingerprint by using a reflected light from a finger. According to research, after the self-luminous OLED display panel is used for a long time, the service life of the green pixels in the pixel area is more attenuated than that of other pixels, and the uniformity of the fingerprint identification area in normal display is influenced.

In addition, in the related art, solid holes are formed in the panel part corresponding to the under-screen camera by using laser to increase the transmittance, and researches show that the risk of influencing reliability due to the fact that water and oxygen enter from the hollow edge exists when the solid holes are formed.

In view of this, embodiments of the present disclosure provide a display panel and a display device, which can improve the color shift phenomenon of the bending display area.

FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 are schematic structural diagrams of a substrate in a front view and a bottom view according to an embodiment of a display panel of the present disclosure.

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, in some embodiments, a display panel includes a substrate A and a plurality of pixel units arranged on the substrate A. The substrate A includes a display region. The display region refers to a region where the pixel units are disposed on the surface of the substrate A and used for screen display.

In FIGS. 1 and 2, the display area includes a flat display region A1 and a bending display region A2. The bending display area A2 is adjacent to the flat display area A1. The bending display area A2 can be disposed on at least one side of the flat display area A1. For example, in FIG. 1, two bending display areas A2 are disposed on the left and right sides of the flat display area A1, and are connected to the left and right sides of the flat display area A1.

Referring to FIG. 2, the surface of the planar display area A1 is a plane, and the normal line N1 thereof is a normal line perpendicular to the surface of the planar display area A1. The normal lines N2 of at least a portion of the curved display area A2 are not parallel to a normal line N1 of the planar display area A1. A normal line N2 to any point of the inflection display area A2 refers to a normal line of a tangent plane F passing through the point and perpendicular to the point. For example, the bending display area A2 forms a predetermined angle (the angle is greater than 0°) relative to the flat display area A1, and the bending display area A2 itself may also have a bending shape.

FIGS. 3-5 are schematic diagrams illustrating three arrangement modes of a plurality of display pixels in a bending display area according to some embodiments of the display panel of the present disclosure.

Referring to FIG. 3, in some embodiments, the bending display area A2 includes a plurality of first pixel regions S1 arranged in an array. Two repeated first pixel regions S1 adjacent vertically are schematically shown in FIG. 3. The plurality of pixel units include a plurality of first pixel units respectively located in the plurality of first pixel regions S1. Each of the plurality of first pixel regions S1 includes: a plurality of first pixel sub-regions S11 and at least one second pixel sub-region S12.

Each of the plurality of first pixel units includes: a plurality of first display sub-pixels U11 and at least one color difference adjusting sub-pixel U12 for adjusting color difference of the first pixel unit. Each first pixel sub-region S11 is provided with at least one first displaying sub-pixel U11 of the plurality of first displaying sub-pixels U11, each second pixel sub-region S12 is provided with the at least one color difference adjusting sub-pixel U12, and the at least one second pixel sub-region S12 is disposed adjacent to at least one of the plurality of first pixel sub-regions S11.

In the embodiment, the color difference adjusting sub-pixel is arranged independent of the first display sub-pixel in the pixel unit of the bending display area, and the display effect of the pixel unit is adjusted by adding the color difference adjusting sub-pixel, so that the color deviation phenomenon of the bending display area caused by a larger bending angle is improved.

In some embodiments, the color of at least one color difference adjustment sub-pixel is the same as the color of at least one of the plurality of first display sub-pixels. The color of the color difference adjusting sub-pixel can be selected according to the color deviation condition of the bending display area of the display panel in actual use or experiment. The opening ratio of the sub-pixels with different colors in the bending display area can be changed by selecting the color difference adjusting sub-pixel with the same color as a certain first display sub-pixel so as to improve the color deviation phenomenon. In addition, in the preparation process, the color difference adjusting sub-pixel and the first display sub-pixel with the same color can be formed by evaporation at the same time, and the complexity of the process cannot be increased. In some embodiments, the brightness of at least one color difference adjustment sub-pixel is adjustable. According to the actual color deviation condition, the brightness of the color difference adjusting sub-pixel is correspondingly adjusted, so that the color deviation phenomenon of the bending display area can be improved.

For example, for the phenomenon of turning yellow of the bending display region of the RGB display sub-pixels, the aperture ratio of the blue sub-pixel in the first pixel unit can be increased compared with the other sub-pixels by providing the color difference adjusting sub-pixel with blue color, and the yellowing of the bending display region can be reduced or eliminated by compensating the brightness of the blue sub-pixel. In different embodiments, the bending angles of the bending display area relative to the plane display area are different, and the color deviation degrees are correspondingly different, so that the brightness of the color difference adjusting sub-pixel can be adjusted to meet the requirement of eliminating the color deviation.

The color difference adjusting sub-pixels can have different colors according to the color shift of the bending display area in different display panel embodiments. For example, for a green bending display area, a red color difference adjustment sub-pixel may be used, and for a red bending display area, a green color difference adjustment sub-pixel may be used.

Referring to FIG. 3, in some embodiments, the centers of the plurality of first pixel sub-regions S11 and the centers of the second pixel sub-regions S12 are located on the same line L1. In the first pixel region, the centers of the respective pixel sub-regions are located on the same straight line, and for a plurality of first pixel regions included in the bending display region, adjacent first pixel regions may be arranged along the extending direction of the straight line and/or the vertical direction of the straight line.

In FIG. 3, the first pixel unit includes three first display sub-pixels U11 and one color difference adjustment sub-pixel U12. The first pixel region S1 includes three first pixel sub-regions S11 and one second pixel sub-region S12. The three first display sub-pixels U11 are respectively located in the three first pixel sub-regions S11, and the color difference adjusting sub-pixel U12 is located in the second pixel sub-region S12. In some embodiments, the three first display sub-pixels U11 are a red sub-pixel, a green sub-pixel, and a blue sub-pixel, respectively, and the three first display sub-pixels constitute the three primary colors of RGB. In other embodiments, the three first display sub-pixels U11 may have other colors respectively.

In some embodiments, the color difference adjustment sub-pixel U12 has the same color as one of the red sub-pixel, the green sub-pixel, and the blue sub-pixel. For example, color difference adjusting sub-pixel U12 may have the same color as the blue sub-pixel, and the color difference adjusting sub-pixel U12 may be located between the green sub-pixel and the red sub-pixel. Thus, the pixel structure of the BGB′R is formed, and the phenomenon of color deviation towards yellow of the bending display area can be effectively eliminated. In some embodiments, the color difference adjustment sub-pixel U12 may be disposed adjacent to the first display sub-pixel of the same color, so as to be evaporated through the same aperture of a Fine Metal Mask (FMM), thereby simplifying the manufacturing process.

In FIG. 4, two repeated first pixel regions S1′ adjacent vertically are schematically shown, and it can be seen that straight lines L2, L3 and L4 passing through the centers of three first pixel sub-regions S11′ can form a right triangle. In other embodiments, the three straight lines may also form an acute triangle or an obtuse triangle.

With the first pixel region S1′ of such a structure, the first pixel unit may include three first display sub-pixels U11′ and one color difference adjusting sub-pixel U12′. The three first display sub-pixels U11′ are located in the three first pixel sub-regions S11′ respectively, and the color difference adjustment sub-pixel U12′ is located in the second pixel sub-region S12′.

In some embodiments, the three first display sub-pixels U11′ are a red sub-pixel, a green sub-pixel, and a blue sub-pixel, respectively, and the color difference adjusting sub-pixel U12′ has the same color as one of the red sub-pixel, the first green sub-pixel, the second green sub-pixel, and the blue sub-pixel. For example, the color difference adjusting sub-pixel U12′ and the blue sub-pixel have the same color, the center of the first pixel sub-region S11′ where the blue sub-pixel is located may be located at a right angle point of the first shape, the centers of the two first pixel sub-regions S11′ where the red sub-pixel and the green sub-pixel are located respectively are located at corner points at two ends of a hypotenuse of the first shape, and the virtual lines connecting the center of the second pixel sub-region S12′ and the corner points at two ends of the hypotenuse of the first shape form a second shape of a right triangle.

Referring to FIG. 5, in some embodiments, the centers of the plurality of first pixel sub-regions S11″ and the center of the second pixel sub-region S12″ are also located on the same line L1. However, unlike the embodiment of FIG. 3, the first pixel unit includes four first display sub-pixels U11″ and one color difference adjustment sub-pixel U12″.

In FIG. 5, the first pixel region S1″ includes three first pixel sub-regions S11″ and one second pixel sub-region S12″, two of the four first display sub-pixels U11″ are located in one of the three first pixel sub-regions S11″. The two first display sub-pixels U11″ may respectively have the shapes of pentagon in opposite direction. Two other of the first display sub-pixels U11″ locate in two other of the three first pixel sub-regions S11″, respectively, the color difference adjustment sub-pixels being located in the second pixel sub-region S12″.

In addition, the first pixel sub-region S11 and the second pixel sub-region S12 in the embodiment of FIG. 3 are rectangles with the same size, the first pixel sub-region S11′ and the second pixel sub-region S12′ in the embodiment of FIG. 4 are squares or rectangles with the same size, and the first pixel sub-region S11″ and the second pixel sub-region S12″ in FIG. 5 are hexagons with the same size. Each of the pixel sub-regions in two first pixel regions S1″ adjacent vertically in FIG. 5 are arranged with a shift.

In some embodiments, the four first display sub-pixels U11″ are a red sub-pixel, a first green sub-pixel, a second green sub-pixel, and a blue sub-pixel. The first green sub-pixel and the second green sub-pixel are located in the same first pixel sub-region S11″, and the color difference adjusting sub-pixel U12″ has the same color as one of the red sub-pixel, the green sub-pixel, and the blue sub-pixel. For example, with the color difference adjusting sub-pixel U12′ having the same color as the blue sub-pixel, the second pixel sub-region S12″ may be located between the first pixel sub-region S11″ where the blue sub-pixel is located and the first pixel sub-region S11″ where the first green sub-pixel and the second green sub-pixel are collectively located.

FIGS. 6-8 are schematic diagrams illustrating three ways of disposing a plurality of display pixels in a fingerprint identification area according to some embodiments of the display panel of the present disclosure.

Referring to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, the display area further includes a fingerprint identification area A3, located within the flat display area A1 (shown in FIG. 1 by a rectangular dashed box). The fingerprint recognition area A3 is also provided with pixel units capable of realizing a display function, and the shape and position thereof are not limited to the example shown in FIG. 1. In a display device employing a display panel, a fingerprint recognition sensor (i.e., an in-screen fingerprint recognition sensor) may be provided at a position corresponding to the fingerprint recognition area A3 on the side of the substrate A away from the pixel unit.

Referring to FIG. 6, in some embodiments, the fingerprint identification area A3 includes a plurality of second pixel regions S2 arranged in an array. Two repeated first pixel regions S2 adjacent vertically are schematically shown in FIG. 6. The plurality of pixel units further include a plurality of second pixel units respectively located in the plurality of second pixel regions S2. Each of the plurality of second pixel regions S2 includes: a plurality of third pixel sub-regions S21 and at least one fourth pixel sub-region S22.

Each of the plurality of second pixel units includes: a plurality of second display sub-pixels U21 and at least one fingerprint light source sub-pixel U22 for providing a light source to the fingerprint sensor upon fingerprint recognition. Each third pixel sub-region S21 is provided with at least one second displaying sub-pixel U21 of the plurality of second displaying sub-pixels U21, each fourth pixel sub-region S22 is provided with the at least one fingerprint light source sub-pixel U22, and the at least one fourth pixel sub-region S22 is disposed adjacent to at least one of the plurality of third pixel sub-regions S21.

In this embodiment, the fingerprint light source sub-pixel that are independent of the second display sub-pixel in the pixel element are provided in fingerprint identification area, and when a finger touches the part of the screen that corresponds to the fingerprint identification area, fingerprint light source sub-pixel can emit light in response to the touch of finger, so as to provide light for the finger. In such way, fingerprint sensor senses the fingerprint through the reflected light from the finger. Different from the light of the correlation technique provided by the display pixel during fingerprint identification, this embodiment provides light for the finger through fingerprint light source sub-pixel, saves the service life loss of the display sub-pixel in fingerprint identification area during fingerprint identification, so as to make the display sub-pixel in fingerprint identification area keep substantially same service life as those of other display sub-pixels in display area, thereby improve the homogeneity of fingerprint identification area during normal display.

In some embodiments, the fingerprint light source sub-pixels in the pixel units of the fingerprint identification area can be only transitorily highlighted when being used for fingerprint identification, so that the normal display effect of the fingerprint identification area is not affected.

In some embodiments, the color of at least one fingerprint light source sub-pixel is the same as the color of at least one of the plurality of second display sub-pixels. In some embodiments, the fingerprint light source sub-pixel is disposed adjacent to a second display sub-pixel of the same color, so as to be evaporated using the same aperture of the FMM, thereby simplifying the manufacturing process.

In some embodiments, the three second display sub-pixels U21 are a red sub-pixel, a green sub-pixel, and a blue sub-pixel, respectively, and the three second display sub-pixels constitute the three primary colors of RGB. In other embodiments, the three second display sub-pixels U21 may have other colors respectively.

In some embodiments, the fingerprint light source sub-pixel U22 has the same color as the green sub-pixel, and the green sub-pixel has a higher brightness, so as to provide a higher brightness illumination light for the finger. In addition, in the preparation process, the fingerprint light source sub-pixels and the green sub-pixels with the same color can be formed by evaporation at the same time, and the complexity of the process may not be increased. The fourth pixel sub-region S22 is disposed adjacent to the third pixel sub-region S21 in which the green sub-pixel is disposed. Thus, the BGG′R pixel structure is formed, the service life loss of the fingerprint identification area can be eliminated, and the consistency of a display area is improved.
